Some people get a cheap laugh breaking up the speed limit
Scaring the pedestrians for a minute
Crossing up progress driving on the grass

Leaving just enough for room to pass
Sunday driver never took a test
Oh yeah, once upon a time in the west


Yes, it's no use saying that you don't know nothing
It's still gonna get you if don't do something

Sitting on a fence that's a dangerous course
Oh, you could even catch a bullet from the peace-keeping
force

Even the hero gets a bullet in the chest
Oh yeah, once upon a time in the west


Mother Mary your children are slaughtered
Some of you mothers ought to lock up your daughters
Who's protecting the innocenti

Heap big trouble in the land of plenty
Tell me how we're gonna do what's best
You guess once upon a time in the west


Once upon a time in the west...
